Method

Wash the melon

Rinse the Cantaloupe Melon under cool running water and pat it dry so the rind is clean before you cut into it.

Cut and seed

Set the melon on a cutting board and slice it in half lengthwise. Scoop out the seeds and stringy center with a spoon, then cut the flesh into neat wedges or bite-size crescents.

Assemble and serve

Arrange the melon on a platter or plates, then drape about 3 slices of Prosciutto Crudo per serving over and around it in loose folds. Serve immediately while everything is cold and the prosciutto stays soft.
